2x11 Rivals January 2,1994
A Quark heavy episode as he deals with the new hip trendy bar in town.
2x12 The Alternate January 9,1994
The Origins of Odo have got to be one of the most interesting questions in the Star Trek Universe. He was discovered,no one knows his race, is he the only one ,nothing. This is the second episode that has dealt with his origins and both have been a bit unsatisfying.Here we meet Dr. Mora, who was one of the first people to study Odo. The actor really underplays the part, who is both a proud parent and a jilted one. An Empty nester who really misses when he and Odo worked together. We are early in the series, but I hope Odo Origin episodes get better.
2x13 Armageddon Game January 30,1994
I have noticed if the make up department for TNG was fun with Exo Skeletons, for DS9 is it funky hair styles. I am not sure if this a Gamma Quadrant problem or not. The writers tried to work a relationship between Bashir and O'Brien that just didn't work for me.
2x14 Whispers February 6,1994
I again can complain about the length of the seasons. Nothing I can do to about it. But we are in the middle of the season and the writing just isn't there. Colm Meaney gets a lot of facetime in a story where everyone seems to be against O"Brien. The episode has a twist ending which really doesn't save it. In truth O'Brien is a good character in an ensemble episode,but two episode in a row as a lead just isn't working.
2x15 Paradise February 13,1994
Sisko and O'Brien (Surprising) are exploring planets in the Gamma Quadrant,they find castaways.It ends up being an effective episode about cult leadership, and technology vs. Agriculture based society.
2x16 Shadowplay February 20,1994
The second appearance of the Dominion, the superpower in the Gamma Quadrant. A good episode as Dax and Odo investigate the disappearance of villagers. well written,well acted Kenneth Mars has a part.This is such a smart show.
2x17 Playing God February 27,1994
A great Dax, or really Jadzia episode, she liked hanging out with Ferengi, has a girly type relationship with Kira and judges the suitably of a host candidate.
2x18 Profit and Loss March 20,1994
Mary Crosby is almost unidentifiable behind makeup as she plays Quark's true love. A minor Cardassian character Garak the Tailor may not be a Tailor. This is another strong episode. There is an interesting detail
2x19 Blood Oath March 27,1994
A Dax episode with Klingons? Yes,Please. Corzon had a blood oath for vengeance with 3 Klingons , played by TOS veterans of John Colicos,William Campbell and Micheal Ansara. Jadzia must decide whether to honor the oath that her previous host made. The episode has good hand to hand combat,my favorite characters and I am coming to the conclusion Avery Brooks is really getting into the role.An engaging episode.
2x20 The Maquis,Part 1 April 24,1994
2x21 The Maquis,Part 2 May 1,1994
A Personal Note, the second part aired on my 29th birthday. This is a 2 part episode that seems significant in the history of the series. The Maquis don't like the federation, we meet a renegade Vulcan, a friend of Sisko. Sisko works with Gul Dukat, his Cardassian counterpart. The writing is first rate.The show is really on a roll of good episodes.Dukat gets a lot of character development. Through out the series, we wonder if Cardassians want work with the Federation, the answer may be no.
